Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS was up next for testing with its Linux 4.10 kernel, GCC 5.4 compiler, Mesa 17.0.7, etc.įor a look ahead at where things are going with Ubuntu 17.10 and then Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, a daily snapshot of 17.10 Artful Aardvark from this week was also benchmarked. The macOS builds were making use of their native Xcode compilation stack powered by LLVM/Clang.
MacOS 10.13 High Sierra was compared to macOS 10.12.6 before loading up the Linux distributions. Other macOS 10.13 changes include HEVC hardware extensions, kernel security improvements, Siri voice improvements, and other refinements to its various bundled applications. OpenGL hasn't received much love in 10.13 and Apple still is not supporting the Vulkan graphics API.

As part of their graphics update also comes support for VR devices, external GPUs, and an updated Quartz compositor. MacOS High Sierra also brings Metal 2 as the new version of the Apple-exclusive graphics API, though that isn't being tested for this article today. I already posted some benchmarks showing APFS generally having much better performance than HFS+ while it wil lbe interesting to see how it compares to EXT4 on Ubuntu. After decades of use, HFS+ is finally being replaced by this new file-system that brings support for 64-bit inodes, exclusively optimized for flash storage, built-in encryption, supports snapshotting, better data integrity, etc. Of course, curiosity got the best of me so here are benchmarks of macOS 10.12.6, macOS 10.13, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 17.10 from a MacBook Air to see how the performance compares.Īrguably the most interesting change with macOS High Sierra is under-the-hood and that's the automatic migration from an HFS+ file-system to using Apple's new APFS file-system. Apple this week released macOS 10.13 "High Sierra" as the latest version of its operating system.
